Power Slinky

These Ernie Ball strings are great they are very durable (last ones I didnt change for 1.5 years). They have a great sound perfect for powerchords as the name suggests. Great for Post-Grunge, Hardrock, Alt-Rock, These strings stay in tune realy well. A nice feature is that these strings are vacuum packed keeping them factory fresh as the company claims. I really like these strings

Great deal

I have changed guitar string brands for years, tried alt methods to keep strings fresh (even tried boiling them before installing) to keep them as fresh sounding as possible with no real result.Well, Ernie Balls do stay good sounding for a LONG time and get vintagy & jazzy as time passes.I really like this set but might even change for heavier gauge just to experiment (I play post rock / noise).Played live and through countless rehearsals & have never had breakage.They certainly dont feel cheap.Highly recommended.

the absolute bees knees when it comes to electric guitar strings. Used by countless acts across the world I personally use these all the time in my hardrock band.. they feel great and they really are great for help keeping the tuning on a downtuned guitar
